George Washington Bridge

Someone included in a list set to be released of people involved in the 2013 lane closures in New Jersey near the George Washington Bridge asked a judge late Thursday to intervene anonymously to block its release, arguing it would unfairly brand them a criminal.

The filing, by The Associated Press and eight other organizations in federal court in Newark, seeks the list of people prosecutors believe were involved but not charged in the conspiracy to close traffic lanes for political retribution in New Jersey.
